This is the look Ahead with Dave Ross and West

0:03

Reynolds on vs END, the Sports

0:05

Betting Network.

0:13

And we begin the look ahead for some

0:15

draft game of sports book. Dave Ross, West Frontalds coming

0:17

out to you here from start of sports in fabulous Las

0:19

Vegas. Nevat. I got a bad power situation. Less

0:22

I apologize he's not properly

0:24

groomed to begin the show here. Now

0:26

we are ready to fire for the next

0:28

three hours. We had drama in Dallas.

0:31

We'll get to that finish in that Game

0:33

seven in the NHL. We had a Game seven

0:35

in the NBA Auto Major League Baseball.

0:37

To get to.

0:38

Obviously, we'll quickly look back

0:40

at UFC three oh one as well. Intet

0:42

some golf action today, But I did

0:44

want to begin there in the golf because I saw

0:46

that brooks Keptka won the Live Tour event this

0:48

weekend and he

0:51

made four million

0:54

dollars for winning the

0:57

individual portion of

0:59

the Live Golf of the team

1:01

portion that one separate

1:04

from the individual earnings one point

1:06

eight chopped up for the

1:08

winners for the team portion. This

1:10

week on the PGA, Taylor Pendrith won

1:13

first Canadian never to win. As you well know, the CJ

1:15

Cup for the Byron Nelson. He got

1:17

one point seven million for winning individually.

1:21

And I look at it and I go, like

1:23

the old two things can be true at once, we could

1:25

all hate that live Golf exists. But

1:28

then when I see this, Wes, I go, I

1:30

don't know how these guys have an all jump ship. And

1:33

I know obviously it's you know, the smaller fields

1:35

and all those things, so it's not like the PGA Tour, But

1:38

my goodness, when I see that, and then they don't have another

1:40

event for a month in Live

1:42

up, they get a month off, Wes, and

1:44

you pocket four mil to

1:46

win, And I think the guy that finished

1:48

in forty fifth made as much

1:50

as the guy that finished in twentieth. When

1:52

you look at that money, the disparage,

1:55

the difference of the money, there are you

1:57

stunned that not everybody is left yet to

1:59

go over?

2:00

Now look, I mean everybody has

2:02

a different price, I guess, and you

2:04

know, some guys don't want to do that. Some guys

2:06

may not want to play this, you know,

2:08

because liv is trying to be kind of a knockoff,

2:11

like the Formula one of golf. That's right, that's what

2:13

they're trying to be so they have all these international

2:16

events, and you know, guys

2:18

might not want to travel overseas

2:21

s frequently as you know that they would in

2:23

the schedule, especially when they go

2:25

to Europe in the summer, not to prepare for the Old

2:28

World.

2:28

Yeah, so you know, and and and and

2:30

some guys.

2:31

Obviously have more different moral objections,

2:34

uh, based on who funds that tour.

2:36

So yeah, uh, you know,

2:38

I I think that that's the reason why you're not

2:40

seeing a lot of guys. And I think that there is a little

2:42

bit of a loyalty, you know, to where

2:44

you started. And it's like, hey, I grew up

2:47

wanting to play on the PGA Tour. That

2:49

was my dream event. Yeah,

2:51

and now and now this is their dream. And Taylor

2:54

pendrif accomplishes that, gets

2:56

his first career win. Uh.

2:58

Ben Coles looked like he

3:00

was going to have it. It was Pendrift's the

3:02

whole way. And then Ben Coles

3:04

makes a birdie on seventeen, Pendrift

3:08

settles for par to win or to lead by

3:10

one. Then ben Cole's at

3:13

second shot, then a bad

3:15

pitch shot and then had it, you

3:18

know, kind of a medium to short one

3:20

for Parr and missed

3:22

it wes.

3:23

Out of all the players that

3:26

played today at the CJ Cup,

3:29

nobody made bogie

3:31

on eighteen until

3:34

Ben Knowles did to blow

3:36

the tournament. At least you make par. You

3:38

go to a playoff with Taylor Pendriff, as

3:40

you mentioned, that second shot goes a

3:43

little bit wide, but he flubs that

3:45

pitch shot and leaves it back in

3:47

the hay, and then as you mentioned, another indifferent

3:50

one to get it out of there and then misses like a five footer

3:52

to say par and forced the playoff. And I just you

3:55

know, it's like we talk about pressure, and this is kind

3:57

of gets back to that live golf sometimes they say there's

3:59

no pressure there because everything's guaranteed.

4:01

Right, that was pressure you saw

4:03

it for Ben Knowles, and you mentioned Taylor

4:06

Pendrith, who had never won the PGA Tour. And

4:08

that's the way you win. I mean, when nobody

4:10

else in the entire field makes

4:13

a bogie on that particular hole and

4:15

the last player of the last group that's

4:17

coming through makes the first six in the par five,

4:20

that's real tangible pressure for these games.

4:22

Yeah, it is.

4:22

I mean it's hard to win. It's

4:24

hard for those guys to win. It's hard to

4:27

hit outright futures on these

4:29

tours, and it has for me at least

4:31

this year. But look,

4:34

Taylor Pendreff had kind of

4:36

been knocking at the door for a win for maybe a

4:38

year. He's been in contention a few times. He finally

4:41

gets through. Ben Cole settles for second,

4:43

Alex Norn third, two

4:45

back. This was a downfield this week, of

4:47

course, because it's before the Wells Fargo and

4:50

then the PGA in Louisville

4:52

following that event. So downfield

4:54

this week. Only I think ten of the top

4:57

fifty players in the official World Golf

4:59

rankings this one. So Taylor

5:02

Pendriff, Look, he's the guy,

5:04

he was the overnight leader, and

5:06

he was the guy that you know, you felt

5:09

had it under control all day and then all of a sudden,

5:11

you're going with one whole left play and you're one

5:13

back on a par five. So

5:16

it's like, Okay, I for sure have to make Bertie

5:18

and I may have to make eagle and

5:21

the two shot swing there

5:23

at the eighteenth and Taylor Pendriff the

5:25

newest winner on the PGA Tour.

5:26

Yeah, birdie bogie and

5:29

that we're done, just like that with Pendrith not even

5:31

have to go to the playoff. And we're hearing

5:33

rumbleys now with the President's Cup this

5:35

year, it's the off year for the Ryder Cups. We have the President's

5:37

Cup. Maybe he'll make that Canadian

5:40

team and that's a really good situation

5:43

for him for Pendrith to make his case to be on that team

5:46

for the internationals against the United States.

5:49

I mentioned Brooks CPA winning it live. We won't

5:51

see Brooksy now until he defends

5:53

or tries to defend his PGA

5:55

championship, and he'll do that in

5:57

two weeks. He is sixteen to

5:59

one and this you don't have. You and I have had

6:01

this conversation for a couple of years now actually, and

6:04

it is funny because I want to say

6:06

more quote unquote, mainstream media now will

6:09

give you the live golf results

6:12

even though you don't get They don't get world ranking

6:14

points for it. He gets zero world ranking points.

6:16

People, they go, oh, Brooksy won

6:18

the live golf event. John Rahm didn't. Still

6:21

is not won on the Live Golf Tour, although

6:23

in the seven tournaments they've had this year, he's

6:25

been a top ten finisher every single time,

6:28

so it's like rom even though he's not winning, he's

6:30

there. Does your view of Brooks

6:33

change with his win today

6:35

at Live or would have been the same if he finished

6:37

T fifteen?

6:38

Not particularly, I don't

6:41

think so.

6:41

I think, you know, it wasn't

6:43

really in contention in the Masters. Maybe

6:46

he will be here, but look, I

6:48

don't think they I think that was a big overreaction

6:50

when they played so well at the Masters the

6:53

year prior and it's like, oh my god, they

6:55

won.

6:56

Yeah.

6:56

I think that was a massive overreaction. And

6:59

I think you just got to treat players as individuals

7:02

and not you know, what tour they come from,

7:04

and so you

7:06

know, maybe maybe a small

7:09

decline in price, but but I don't. I

7:11

think he was going to be priced where he was anyway

7:14

before he won this event.

7:15

Yeah, so it's still sixteen to one for Brooksy.

7:18

We see that the John Rahm is the shortest

7:20

lived player on the board at twelve to

7:22

one. In two weeks. Rory's eleven to one coming off that

7:25

nice win with the in the team competition a

7:27

week ago in New Orleans, Scotti Scheffer

7:29

is still plus three fifty I say, plus three fifty

7:31

to win, and then the next betting favorite is rored

7:33

eleven to one. I gotta be honest with

7:35

you, Wes, where's

7:38

this baby? The baby? There's still

7:40

no baby, Scotty. There's still no

7:42

Scotty Sheffer baby. So we've been waiting

7:44

and waiting for this baby to happen. Hasn't

7:47

happened yet. M there's no way Scotty

7:49

Scheffer's going to be missed the PGA Championship,

7:51

is there because he, again at Augusta

7:53

last month, had said if

7:57

wife he goes into labor deuces,

8:00

I'm out. I mean, there's no way you can handicap

8:02

or or avoid playing Scotti schefferd that

8:04

way. But Wes, we're two weeks away. Man, it's

8:07

still no baby.

8:08

Yeah, look, Cap, you know you're gonna have to

8:10

wait now. And honestly, the price isn't

8:12

gonna change much. The prices will change if

8:14

he would draw, right, but his price is

8:16

not going to change. So

8:18

so you know, I really don't pay

8:20

too much attention to it, because he's going to

8:22

be the favorite no matter what. Yeah, and

8:25

I don't think you're going to see much of a price adjustment

8:28

at all for that.

8:28

The only thing that would adjust would be the other players. If

8:31

Scotty again, we're you know, doing

8:33

this little fun tongue in cheek. But if

8:35

he's on record saying he won't be there, if

8:37

you know, he's still waiting on the baby to come. If

8:40

he skips, then those prices would get shorter

8:42

on some of those guys we just mentioned. So just

8:44

some food for thought out there. It

8:46

is official, and we will have a

8:49

new Stanley Cup champion

8:51

this year.

8:52

We have handshakes now in Dallas.

8:55

Or a little bit out for our Vegas Golden Knights.

8:58

Hey, you go seven games the next year

9:00

with the Dallas Stars. I know that

9:02

they it's no consolation prize for VGK.

9:04

Tonight they do lose in

9:06

Dallas in game seven, so the Stars

9:08

move on and you know, you've been

9:10

here since the inception VGK.

9:14

What is this run, this kind of two year run. Now

9:16

that it's over, it's been special.

9:18

We're here at Circa was It's packed obviously every

9:20

night when VGK is playing, and the boys

9:23

gave it a good run again even though they come up a little

9:25

bit short tonight.

9:25

In game seven.

9:26

Yeah.

9:26

Yeah, look, look, this series was a war

9:28

between these two teams. Dallas I think open

9:31

minus one thirty on the series price plus

9:33

one ten on the Golden Knights. Obviously

9:35

flips back and forth as we get results for

9:37

individual games in the series. But Dallas

9:41

was was the number one on the Western Conference

9:43

for a reason, right and

9:45

they were They were better than VGK.

9:47

I thought for most of the series.

9:50

This was actually a heck of a run

9:52

just to get it to seven games, because you

9:54

felt like for at least the majority of the

9:56

series, if you've watched all the games

9:58

like I have, this was Dallas's

10:01

series that they were the better team. And

10:04

you know, BGK was able to win three games. They

10:06

won those first two games in Dallas. That first

10:08

game where they got out played, but they were two to two

10:10

on the power play and that made all

10:12

the difference. But Dallas,

10:15

Dallas stayed out of the box for the most part

10:17

tonight and that's what got him

10:19

to win. Very early in the third period, Raddock

10:21

Fox with the eventual game winning

10:24

goal, so you just forty four seconds in

10:26

to get that.

10:27

They hold onto that and win two to one in

10:29

the game seven finals. So no empty editor. If you had VGK

10:32

plus the goal in a half puck line, you get home

10:34

there. Stars. Obviously you had to lay

10:36

it with them, but if you had them on the puck line, you're gonna lose that one.

10:38

Come up with a bit short with no empty editor there,

10:40

Dallas does move on. VGK is officially

10:42

done after a pretty good

10:45

defense, I would say of Ord Stanley's Cup, Yeah, I

10:47

think so.

10:47

Look look very good series.

10:49

They were injured a lot late in the season,

10:51

got healthy for the playoffs. But Peter

10:54

de Boer now, and I said it

10:56

Friday night after Vegas won and tied

10:58

this and forced the Game seven, that you

11:00

know that Peter de Boor being undefeated in Game

11:03

sevens a lot more fun when he's your coach and not

11:05

the opposing coach. And yeah,

11:07

now eight to one Game sevens

11:09

is Peter de bor A lot of that was with San Jose,

11:12

Yah, some of that was here with the Vegas

11:14

Golden Knights, and then now extending it with the Dallas

11:16

Stars. So the Dallas Stars, we'll

11:19

move on to face the Colorado Avalanche. We'll get

11:21

a serious price here later in the program

11:23

for you. Okay, Dallas

11:26

Stars minus one fifteen and then minus

11:28

one oh five on the Colorado Avalanche.

11:30

Pretty we matched there.

11:31

Pretty even. And then on the other side in the West.

11:34

It is Edmonton and Vancouver, so

11:36

inn all Canadian series oilers

11:38

minus two to fifty.

11:39

We've got lots of breakdown with that Game

11:41

seven and the Stanley Cup playoffs and also

11:43

the NBA Playoffs. Will get to all of that when

11:45

you come back with us right here on the look at.

11:59

This is the look Ahead with Dave Ross and West

12:01

12:30

Dave Ross as we continue to look ahead here

12:32

and we're gonna have our guy JBT is

12:34

going to join us at the top of the hour to talk all

12:36

things NBA. We saw Game seven today Cleveland.

12:40

I believe this is one of the biggest Game seven comebacks

12:42

since the stats been charted.

12:44

Today against Orlando, they kind of look down and out

12:46

in the first half, came roaring back in the third

12:48

quarter cover all numbers. Cleveland moves

12:51

on with their win today in Game

12:53

seven against Orlandos, we'll talk about what's up

12:55

next there, and then Michael Duarte is going to join

12:57

us in our number two as well. He always

12:59

says the also, and everything going on in

13:01

the great City of La Sadly

13:03

for Michael and the boys.

13:05

Not a lot going on right now. And you

13:07

know that's all right.

13:08

Well, that's why I was saying, if you're

13:10

a musical uter, disturb and book your arena

13:12

dat at the Crypto dot Com arena because there's

13:14

a lot of vacancies there right now. But

13:16

you know, that arena staff, by the way, I was kidding

13:19

with a buddy of mine that's an LA sports

13:21

fan, and you know saying that

13:24

that event staff in that arena doesn't get

13:26

like a day off. It doesn't seem like for like six

13:29

or seven months, because you have Kings game,

13:32

who are now out of the playoffs, you have Lakers games,

13:34

you have Clippers games, plus you have special

13:36

events. So it's like they hardly

13:38

ever get a day off there. They're getting some time

13:41

off now though, because LA all

13:44

gone from the playoffs now.

13:45

Deuce is, I did do one this

13:47

is years ago in DC West. So I

13:49

did the the trifecta in one day. I

13:51

did like a Syracuse Georgetown game. Then

13:54

it was called Verizon Center early then

13:57

after that game was concluded, went to Maryland

14:00

and saw a Maryland basketball game and

14:02

then went back to watch a Caps

14:04

hockey game. So they're like, literally,

14:07

you got to get everybody out. You

14:09

got a hardwood four, and we gotta

14:11

get ice out here. I have always marvel

14:13

at that, like what you're talking about with in LA,

14:16

Like you these people, man, they work,

14:18

it's all. Then you get back there, it's like, I

14:20

can't believe this is the same building that was in six

14:23

hours earlier for a basketball game and

14:25

you would never know. So you got those you

14:27

got to fill those babies, and right now

14:29

LA vacancy science. So

14:32

we will take them in. We got we got

14:34

space. If you've got a band that wants to show

14:36

up, we'll gets up with Michael Douarte now number

14:38

two, by the way, with Dallas beating d

14:41

GK. Those numbers are changing ever so slightly.

14:44

Here.

14:44

This is, you know, kind of hot off the presses

14:46

here single a little bit moving on the Dallas

14:48

Stars side that you can get some small plus

14:50

money on Colorado in this series and

14:53

Dallas. Does that

14:55

surprise you because I would think and damn Moneyline Miller,

14:57

our producer, we were kind of talking during the break, we kind

14:59

of like the Colorado early maybe in that series

15:02

after a seven game grueling series

15:04

that Dallas just went.

15:05

Colorado did

15:07

win the series three to one over

15:10

Dallas. But look, you always see the movement

15:13

when based on what you see,

15:15

there's an immediate reaction to that, and

15:18

it's usually the team that just won

15:20

gets the money on the series price. So don't I

15:22

don't think overreact necessarily to

15:25

the early move But Dallas,

15:28

I mentioned about Peter Debo are now

15:30

eight to o in game seven. That is the longest

15:32

streak in the history in the National Hockey League and actually

15:34

in pro sports history. There's another

15:36

guy win eight to oh in game sevens red

15:39

hourback win and o

15:41

and a game seven's as the coach

15:43

of the Boston Celtics. So pretty good

15:45

company for Pete DeVore and the Stars

15:47

are now moving on and they'll get the Avalanche.

15:52

Do we have a first game or have they released

15:54

that information yet?

15:55

Don't have a first game yet? Okay, well we do

15:57

have those series prices and read

16:00

Arback story was able to do an

16:03

interview with him way back God rest his soul before

16:05

he passed in DC. And he actually was cool

16:07

enough to grace our studio when I worked for Fox in DC,

16:10

and the four director came over because you know what

16:12

Red Arburk liked to do when he went eight to zero

16:14

in those Game sevens, he liked to light up. So

16:17

he lights up a cigar in our

16:19

studio and the four director

16:21

doing your job, is sorry,

16:24

you can't smoke in here. You know what he said,

16:27

I've smoked in better joints than this. Right,

16:30

Red Arback was going to smoke

16:33

when he wanted to smoke, and I was like, yeah, we're not. We're

16:36

stopping Red that's gonna light up. So

16:38

if mister Debor wanted to light up tonight, I

16:40

think everybody in Dallas would say please, by all means,

16:43

ignore the no smoking. Let's

16:45

get back a little bit here to what we

16:47

saw earlier today. And we

16:49

did see Cleveland come back. It was a great

16:51

comeback. Now look at Orlando, it's a young team.

16:54

I thought pal Bancaro second half was we off.

16:56

First half was great. I don't know if they ran

16:58

out of gas or that Cleveland defense finally came through,

17:00

by the way the Overs did cash. I don't know how that happened,

17:02

because it looked like a dead under for the majority.

17:04

Of the game.

17:04

But yeah, that's been the trend, you

17:07

know, with game seven unders in the

17:09

NBA. But I think that

17:11

that's kind of reversing a little bit. It certainly

17:13

isn't doing it necessarily in hockey

17:16

though, because I believe, yeah,

17:18

game seven unders in the Cup playoffs and so

17:20

far forty three, twenty six, and nine,

17:23

and we saw it go under tonaight with

17:25

just three goals down there in Dallas. But back

17:28

to Cleveland in Orlando, Cleeve,

17:31

look, that's a matchup Cleveland wanted and

17:33

they got it now they got forced to go game

17:35

seven. I just thought a little

17:37

bit of.

17:37

Experience, it was.

17:38

It was pretty simple that they were just a little

17:40

bit more experienced than Orlando, who

17:43

had not been to the playoffs. This group certainly

17:45

had very limited playoff experience, and

17:48

Cleveland's defense was better. It was Cleveland's

17:50

defense was better, especially in the second half. Orlando

17:53

thirty three point seven percent

17:55

from the floor. We talked about how they're not a very

17:57

good three point shooting team. They would

17:59

they would the worst percentage wise in the league. They go

18:01

ten to thirty one. We're very good on

18:03

Friday, but had some regression today

18:06

and Cleveland able to pull away

18:09

in that second half. It was

18:10

a ten point lead at the half

18:12

for Orlando and then thirty three

18:15

to fifteen in the third quarter and then just

18:17

really ran them out. Donovan Mitchell, who I don't

18:19

believe is one hundred percent, has been battling a couple

18:21

of different injuries. Donovan Mitchell

18:24

goes for thirty nine second back

18:26

to back, really big time performance for

18:29

Donovan Mitchell. So now Cleveland,

18:32

we'll get Boston on I

18:35

believe a first game Tuesday night. Jared

18:38

Allen, by the way, did not play and

18:41

he is still questionable with the rib injury Porzingis.

18:43

They don't expect Porzingis back. I think for Boston

18:46

until they make the conference finals, assuming

18:48

that that happens, and maybe that's a pretty

18:50

safe assumption based on what the series price

18:52

is.

18:53

I'm seeing as eye as minus two thousand.

18:55

Wow, I've had some some twelve

18:58

dollars, but two yes, yeah,

19:00

one shop. I think win here in town is minus two

19:02

thousand. Now wins a little bit more of pump

19:04

in the favorite's kind of a little bit more I

19:06

hate I'll call a square shop,

19:09

you know, basically, but minus two thousand

19:11

even money on Cleveland. So Boston,

19:15

you know, got some decent rest here.

19:17

Now, Cleveland on a very quick turnaround

19:20

eleven the price for game one

19:22

and twoh eight and a half two oh nine

19:25

on the total for game one.

19:26

Well, look, Boston, they're gonna say

19:28

crimea river because we got injuries now with Zinger,

19:31

as you mentioned how important he is, But you know, boy, you

19:33

get Miami with that Jimmy Butler. Now

19:35

we'll find out about Jared Allen, who couldn't go in Game seven.

19:37

Donovan Mitchell is playing great, but he's not one

19:39

hundred percent. Well, it's kind of aligning

19:41

for Boston to have, not

19:44

saying an easy road, but an easier

19:46

path, and then who knows if it's

19:48

gonna be the Knicks or Pacers to

19:50

possibly oppose them if they get either a sweep

19:52

or a gentleman sweep. But well, I don't see that series

19:54

going past five, do you.

19:57

No? No, I don't.

19:58

I don't think Cleveland is anymore match for

20:01

Boston here. I just they might

20:03

get one game on the shooting variants like Miami

20:05

did where Miami had to hit twenty three threes

20:08

in game number two, But I

20:11

don't see that happening.

20:13

And look, I know Boston a lot.

20:14

You know they've been lukewarm is a favorite

20:17

YEP in the playoffs over the last couple

20:19

of years. Certainly they found out out against

20:21

Miami, but this

20:23

is a better team. And the fact

20:25

that they were and I know Miami had injuries,

20:28

but the fact that they are laying fourteen in a

20:30

close out game without Christaps

20:32

Porzingis tells you that you

20:34

know, they are in a pretty dominant position.

20:37

It will get to all these numbers throughout the course of

20:39

the evening here in the look ahead, but the Knicks

20:41

are two forty five faves over

20:43

the Pacers come back on Indiana's plus two dollars.

20:46

Minnesota now up onns ZIP on

20:48

Denver those adjusted numbers in the market,

20:51

Minnesota is now the favorite and Manasa doar

20:53

twenty Denver even money. You think they're going to get

20:55

back into this thing as the reigning defendings.

20:57

We mentioned Boston as high as as two thousand's

20:59

West said seeing at DraftKings

21:01

minus twelve twelve hundred. There,

21:03

Cleveland is plus eight hundred coming back eight

21:06

dollars. Okay, see in Dallas.

21:08

Right now, with Minnesota and Denver the two most

21:10

evenly priced matchups here, okay,

21:13

see minus a dollar fifteen, Dallas minus

21:15

a dollar five, I wonder

21:17

if now the regular season is showing to be more

21:20

important than maybe we thought right that

21:22

the young Minnesota t Wolves or

21:25

and certainly Oka. See with those one

21:27

in three seeds respectively, Dallas Denver

21:29

was the two that maybe we should have put more emphasis

21:31

on the regular season instead of just going, oh, these

21:34

young kids don't know how to win the playoffs, which I think was a

21:36

narrative. And I don't know that that's going to come

21:38

true.

21:38

No, I don't think so.

21:40

I think, you know, you

21:43

want, you want to do the

21:45

best you can and obviously

21:47

get the best seed as possible,

21:49

which some of these teams have done.

21:52

But you know you mentioned I think

21:54

first the Knicks Pacers series. Nick's

21:58

a more convincing favorite, you

22:00

know, better defensive team, and I

22:02

don't think the Pacers. And I'm not surprised

22:04

that the Knicks are getting the money here necessarily

22:07

because the Pacers aren't going to get credit

22:09

for winning that series, like.

22:10

Ooh, all the Bucks were hurt and all.

22:13

That stuff, so they're not going to get

22:15

the credit. And that's why you see the price

22:17

minus two seventy five and then two twenty

22:19

five two thirty on the plus side

22:21

for the Pacers. But this

22:24

is a team with a little bit less experience,

22:26

so we'll be previewing that I know later

22:29

on in the show. So uh, step up in class

22:31

for the Pacers, but don't discount

22:33

them too early.

22:34

I'm with you. Maybe something up their sleeves

22:36

there in Indian. All right, when we come back, let's talk NFL

22:39

draft, post draft and some news coming

22:41

out of the NFL that's next year. On

23:59

alongside westrontalds Ross here as we continue

24:01

this edition of The Look Ahead, wes very

24:03

quickly UFC three oh one. Last

24:06

night down there in Rio Dijonnairo.

24:10

Look, I go to Riojonnairo

24:14

not forget who sung that song?

24:15

But you know what I mean, you.

24:17

Don't know who sang that.

24:18

I do not see you know every every song

24:20

that was I know, but I know that song.

24:22

You know the tunes. See that's the way I am. I know the

24:24

tunes. I don't know who sings them. We

24:26

wes, you have one of the best

24:28

memories I've ever seen known to man uh

24:31

last night. Look, they can't all be UFC three hundred,

24:34

okay, but it was still spectacular. We

24:36

saw the King of Rio, Joe Saldo

24:38

make his return, came out of retirement. I

24:40

was on the wrong side. I was on the Jonathan Martinez

24:43

side, and Jose Aldo looked

24:45

unbelievable.

24:47

I would I.

24:47

Did not bet it, but I leaned Martinez too,

24:50

because I thought, okay, is this being

24:52

set up?

24:53

You know for I know Martina.

24:55

I know Martinez is not a Brazilian, but

24:58

you know, obviously I had

25:00

a big fight winning streak and yes, you know, had

25:02

one six in a row. So I thought, okay, although,

25:05

you know, is he a little bit past his prime?

25:08

Lass fight in his contract, Maybe he's

25:10

gonna retire. You know, there

25:12

were a lot I'm with you.

25:13

And yeah, usually when a guy's about to retire,

25:15

they're losing on the way out the door, and they let him

25:17

give a big speech and honor their career and

25:20

he dominated this guy.

25:21

Oh my goodness. I couldn't believe it. And I

25:23

think what happens sometimes

25:25

certainly in combat sports, right, you see this with

25:27

Legends, you get hero

25:29

worship. And I thought it was evident

25:32

early on from Jonathan Martinez that And you know,

25:34

I heard Joe Rogan some of these guys saying it after

25:36

the show, like I think that you get in

25:38

there sometimes and then you look across you go, oh my god, it's

25:40

Wes Renolds. I'm doing a show with Wes

25:42

Frolds.

25:43

And then you don't know what to do.

25:44

And I think it froze Jonathan Martinez

25:47

and you got a little hero worship, and Josey

25:49

I was like, cool kid, I'm gonna bang out of here.

25:51

And I think at the end he was

25:54

ragged dolling Jonathan Martinez so well with his hands.

25:56

He took him down, and I think there was almost

25:58

like a mercy kill, like I don't want to keep punching you anymore,

26:00

so I'll just take you down and control you until the bell rings.

26:03

Right, And an easy decision. No

26:05

contract with thirty twenty seven and all three cards,

26:07

and now the King of Rio might

26:10

get a title shot out of this Wes. They're talking

26:12

about the Sugar Show. Sean O'Malley

26:15

maybe and al though to his credit, he

26:18

says, yea, I don't mind jumping the line. They want to jump

26:20

the line and give me a title shot out day. This guy was retiring

26:22

twenty four hours ago, and now he might get

26:24

a title shot with Sean O'Malley. That'd be insane.

26:27

But yet again, you know, I'm watching and

26:30

I'm down for a scrap. I don't

26:32

know how excited people would be about

26:34

that, But still, jose Aldough

26:37

and I know people still have that decade

26:39

long memory of Conor McGregor and knocking him out in

26:41

thirteen seconds, but would you be intrigued

26:43

by that matchup?

26:44

This guy has not held a title

26:46

since seven years

26:48

ago and shot

26:51

and not getting any younger. He is now

26:54

thirty seven, he'll turn thirty eight in September.

26:58

Hey, you know, if people want to if people

27:00

want to see it, if there's a demand for they'll

27:02

make the fight.

27:03

That's exactly the way this business works.

27:05

But you know, we were talking Dave about

27:07

shock during the break and one

27:10

chalky thing. This was an interesting little nugget

27:12

from our buddy Evan. Evan Abrams over at Action

27:14

Network. Eight No NHL favorites

27:16

going the first round, first time since nineteen

27:18

ninety. I thought we were going to have all

27:21

favorites last night on the UFC

27:23

show until until

27:25

Wineheart, Lionheart Anthony Smith

27:29

of all guys on this guard.

27:30

He saved my butt because I had him at four to

27:32

one to get that done against Petrino and

27:35

Vittor. I don't think he called

27:37

out Lionheart for this fight.

27:40

And the only reason why I was on the line Heart and we're

27:42

kind of talking a little bit about for the show, is

27:44

I heard him. You know how this works professional pride.

27:47

Yeah, He's like, you're calling me out, Like, do you realize

27:49

that I thought all the best fighters there

27:51

are to fight at white heavyweight? And he said after he

27:53

said, I'm a big Patrino fan, but when he

27:55

called me out, I was offended and I took it personally.

27:57

And he goes and gets a quick submission Patrino,

28:00

and then after he says, I'm still a big fan. But there

28:02

are levels to this kid. It's exactly what he said.

28:04

Good to go down there and in Brazil

28:07

and and look, Anthony Smith, I know a former

28:09

champion, but.

28:10

But so I said, I don't.

28:11

I don't want to dismiss him as a

28:14

journeyman fighter by

28:16

any stretch, because he's fought the best. He

28:19

has fought the absolute best in his career.

28:21

You know, fought John Jones in

28:24

a main event.

28:24

What was the.

28:25

Uh never

28:27

one? I don't think a belt in the UFC. That

28:30

certainly fought, yes.

28:32

And the very best in the white heavyweight

28:35

division. So I was with you. I

28:37

was like, wow, I get that why he's a big favorite

28:39

because of the venue in Brazil. But thank goodness

28:41

that one cash. I will tell you this, I.

28:43

Probably killed a few parlays too.

28:44

Oh.

28:45

It was definitely a parlay stuff for a lot of people out

28:47

there. And I gotta tell you, Patrina was almost non competitive

28:50

in that first round, and Anthony Smith locked in

28:52

that sub got that neck and good

28:54

night, that baby was over. He topped twice.

28:56

By the way, the ref didn't see the first step.

28:59

Anthony Smith did not let go of a hold

29:01

until the second tap, and that was very smart

29:03

on his part because if he lets it go and the ref doesn't

29:06

see it, that fight would have continued. So you

29:08

don't stop until the ref pulls you out of there.

29:10

That's exactly what Anthony Smith did. Main

29:12

event. I was on the Steve Ersik side, and I gotta

29:15

tell you, we talk about it a lot. Not

29:17

all good bets win, and at

29:19

that price tag I got er second a plus dollar

29:22

sixty five to beat Alessandra Pantosia.

29:24

Pantosia, to his credit, gutted

29:27

through that fight last night and won a

29:30

unanimous decision. Now, two judges had

29:32

a forty eight forty seven, one judge had a forty nine to forty

29:34

six. I don't did not see that, but it

29:36

was essentially in the two judges cards two to two

29:38

going to the fifth and final round in which

29:40

Steve Ersig was dominating

29:43

with the hands, and then he went

29:45

for an ill advised takedown, got

29:48

the takedown, couldn't control it, and

29:50

Pantosia, to his credit, reversed his position

29:53

and controls and did some damage with

29:55

it and wins that fifth round on all

29:57

three cards. That was the difference in the fight.

30:00

And I look at Ersig, Wes, this guy was

30:02

tenth ranked flyweight

30:05

in the world coming into this fight. I don't

30:07

know where he's gonna be ranked after this. It will

30:09

be one of the few times that you see a guy lose

30:12

and skyrocket up the board, and I'll

30:14

tell you this, Pantosia full

30:16

credit. I did think the judges got that right,

30:18

even though I was on the Ersk side. I

30:20

thought Ersig lost that fifth round

30:22

and therefore lost the fight. I don't

30:24

know how many people are gonna be calling out Steve Ersig's

30:27

name in up and coming guys.

30:29

At one hundred and twenty five pounds, I don't know how he makes the

30:31

weight. And I'll tell you this, Panto just said, I'm gonna

30:33

take some time away, felt like a guy that wants

30:35

to you know, I'm still the champ, gonna

30:37

xale and not fight for a bit. I can't

30:39

wait to see what Steve Ersig does next.

30:41

Yeah.

30:41

Look, he's a young guy too,

30:44

by the way, what is he twenty.

30:45

Five, twenty six? Yes, so

30:47

he's got a pretty bright future.

30:49

And sometimes you don't win the first time you're

30:51

in the main event. But I thought made a

30:53

nice showing of himself, So I don't

30:56

think we've heard the last of this guy.

30:57

What do you make it? The nickname Astro Boy, I don't

30:59

even know what it means. He's an Australian

31:02

fighter or new Zealand.

31:04

I get those confused all the time. But erstig

31:06

Astro boy, I don't know what it's referencing,

31:09

but he know.

31:10

Was he was. He a Jetson's fan because

31:12

that was the dog Astro.

31:15

He's one of them. They say everybody that I

31:17

don't know Steve personally, everybody that knows him.

31:19

He's the most unassuming guy. He

31:21

kind of has that New England or New Zealand

31:24

Australian feel to him, right, just kind

31:26

of very waid back and very chill, and

31:29

he takes that into his fighting and I think if

31:31

he just steps up the IQ a little bit inside

31:34

the octagon, he's got future champ written

31:36

all over him. He's got a skill set

31:38

that's going to be really difficult for people at one hundred

31:40

and twenty five pounds. I just don't know how much more he could make

31:43

that way. He did say it was a tough weight cut, but he's got

31:45

the size to move up to thirty five no problems.

31:47

Yeah, yeah, And we'll see what he

31:49

does going forward.

31:50

But UFC three to zero one.

31:52

In the books did have one

31:54

underdog. Get there, you had one underdog.

31:56

By the way, if you combine the NBA in the NHL

32:00

one Series underdog that was the Minnesota

32:02

Timberwolves.

32:03

And remember everybody's betting the Suns

32:05

is the sixth seed in that thing, right.

32:07

And no, by the way, the Minnesota Timberwolves,

32:09

who are getting a lot of love in the second round. We

32:11

saw why yesterday. That

32:13

defense is different. This is not the Lakers

32:16

that the Denver Nuggets are taking on here. So

32:18

I know we're going to get to Game two a

32:20

little bit later in the program.

32:22

Very quickly, just on that on that front, after

32:24

what we saw, and I think what the world saw. You

32:27

didn't need to know about Anthony Edwards. I didn't need

32:29

to know, but maybe it felt like the general

32:31

public did. And now it feels

32:33

like they're going to be, Oh, I'm getting five and

32:35

a half in Game two. Oh, I just have

32:37

to lay a dollar twenty with the two. Is there still danger

32:40

because of the overreaction from a game one could

32:43

be?

32:43

But look this Minnesota

32:45

team, you know, taking

32:48

underdogs that are that are the better defensive

32:50

teams, you know.

32:52

More rother than not, more often than not, to

32:54

win more than it loses.

32:55

So you'll see people if

32:57

think getting on Minnesota, Minnesota is the best offensive

33:00

team in the NBA this series, by

33:02

all the metrics, they have the defensive.

33:03

Player of the Year and Rudy Gobert. So yeah,

33:06

this is gonna be tough sledding. I think for I

33:08

think for the Nuggets.

33:09

Now this is far from over, but this

33:12

is a team that's not as deep as maybe.

33:14

They were last year.

33:15

So you saw the Joker man. Joker

33:17

had to work hard. It's nice they

33:20

work. Rudy's gonna work him and he

33:22

was getting a Joker looked a little tired in the

33:24

second half.

33:24

I thought, I'll be interested to get jvt's thoughts

33:26

on.

33:27

I can and have JVT coming up here in our

33:29

number two. When we come back, we will talk to NFL drafting

33:31

some numbers associated maybe with some Rookie

33:34

of the Year awards. That's next to you and Rooki.

33:48

This is the look ahead with Dave Rowson West

33:50

Reynolds on fis end the Sports

33:52

Betty Network.

33:58

Do not piss out on any of

34:01

the NBA. Actually, Draft King Sportsbook and official

34:03

switchs. Betty Plucker of the NBA

34:06

all the way through the finals got covered. Draft

34:08

k Sportsbook does with same game parways a lot

34:10

betting odds boost is so much more download

34:12

the DRAFTK sportsbook. GAP uses code VC new

34:14

34:16

34:19

using the code vs I N only

34:21

on DraftKings. In the Crown gonna

34:23

be all yours going to be a new crown in

34:25

the NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs.

34:28

As VGK loses

34:30

in seven to Dallas. You know, I was torn

34:32

because I'm a Cowboy fan, but I'm not. Never

34:35

lived in Texas. Now I've been here almost

34:37

three years in Vegas, I found myself rooting for the

34:39

home home team for VGK. Do you find yourself

34:41

doing that?

34:42

Yeah?

34:43

Yeah, Look, the Blackhawks were kind of the team

34:45

I rooted for growing up and into adulthood.

34:47

But yeah, look VGK was

34:50

the first real major pro team

34:52

here in town, and you know, in

34:55

light of you know, starting up after the

34:57

tragedy of one October, and you

34:59

know, the town kind of galvanized around him.

35:01

Because hockey's a little bit different out here, because

35:05

even though this town has a lot of transplants,

35:07

you don't really have like a hardcore hockey

35:10

team maybe root four like you would in the NFL

35:12

or baseball or the NBA.

35:15

Like NFL out here, there's a different

35:17

bar somewhere in the Las Vegas Valley

35:19

for every team. Yeah, there are Cowboys bars

35:21

there, forty nine ers bars, Steelers bars, rams

35:23

bars, what have you. So you know,

35:26

I felt the town galvanized behind

35:28

the Vegas Golden Knights. But now the Vegas

35:30

Golden Knights they have

35:32

to relinquish their championship. That Stanley

35:35

Cup is going to one of the

35:37

final eight teams, either going to Boston, Florida,

35:39

Colorado, Dallas, Edmonton, Vancouver, Carolina

35:42

or New York Rangers. By

35:44

the way, they won the first game of the series today

35:46

over Carolina. So now here,

35:49

at least for local sports in Las Vegas,

35:51

it's all about the Aces defending

35:53

their title. WNBA gonna get kicked off,

35:55

I think in about a week and a half.

35:57

Very quickly. And this is a debate I had years ago

36:00

when VGK got to their first Stanley Cup

36:02

final. It was against my team,

36:05

my adopted hometown in DC.

36:07

Grew up in Virginia Beach. I'm kind of a

36:09

nomad, like a wrestler, parts unknown all

36:11

over the country, so I can claim a lot of

36:13

different teams. And then Bryce

36:16

Harper was still a member of the Washington Nationals

36:18

hadn't left yet to go to Philadelphia. He would

36:20

go to Stanley Cup final games in

36:23

DC wearing a

36:25

VGK sweater and we're like, whoa,

36:28

whoa, whoa, whoa, you're

36:30

getting your paychecks in

36:32

DC. You're openly rooting against Alexavetchkin

36:35

and the boys West fair foul for fandom.

36:37

Well, Bryce Harper is a Vegas kid.

36:39

Yes, so you know, went to Las Vegas

36:41

High School, started

36:44

for a year, I believe, at College of Southern Nevada,

36:46

and then eventually was drafted

36:49

number one and you know lived

36:52

up to that. So Bryce Harper is

36:54

a Las Vegas and Natives, which she has a home

36:56

here.

36:57

You work and live at the time in d

36:59

C.

36:59

You were their guy.

37:00

They loved you, right, and

37:02

you're gonna go in DC.

37:05

That's always that's always difficult.

37:07

But look we've seen now we've seen

37:09

Lebron wear Yankee hats.

37:11

Oh Lebron.

37:12

Look that's one of those things like

37:14

like now that the now that the Lakers got

37:16

beat, it's like it's Yankee bait, It's Yankee

37:18

season for for the front the front

37:20

runner fans out there.

37:22

It's fantastic. I kid, Bryce but

37:24

it was it was like a real thing in DC

37:26

for a little bit, like is this right or wrong?

37:28

We know?

37:29

Uh and and NFL we're gonna have some odds

37:31

markets posted for offensive Rookie

37:33

of the Year, Defensive Rookie of the year very quickly before

37:35

we get there. Maybe some of your picks that you're looking at

37:37

the way to look ahead early look ahead

37:40

for those markets. Jj Watt said

37:42

something interesting and run this bike. You

37:44

know he's retired people, right, m h, I'd

37:47

return to the Texans

37:49

quote absolutely if they

37:51

absolutely need it. Well

37:54

yeah, I mean, like if you're still jj

37:57

Watt and you're the guy

37:59

that could put him over the top, nuts, I don't know that

38:01

he can still do. Is that like I

38:03

could be the difference maker because you absolutely

38:06

need me? Or is this his way of saying,

38:08

hey, guys, take me back.

38:09

For one more Well, I mean,

38:11

look, he's already got another job that

38:13

was changed last week on the NFL

38:16

Today on CBS, boomersiasin

38:18

Phil sims out, well, yeah, Matt Ryan

38:20

jj Watt in JJ of course

38:23

did work on the set last year for

38:25

that program. So no, look

38:28

don't I don't think so, I think you

38:31

will. Anderson's the new guy one Rookie

38:33

of the Year last year.

38:34

So they don't need j J.

38:35

Watt. I don't think so, because you remember.

38:38

Jake Cutler got out of the NFL

38:40

and he was going to be a star broadcaster. People

38:43

are forgotten Jake Cutler signed a deal with

38:45

Fox, I believe, and then the Dolphins

38:47

said, how about ten million?

38:50

You want to come out of the booth. He never called.

38:52

I think he did a preseason game. Yeah,

38:54

hey, he took ten million, went back and played quarterback

38:56

for the Dolphins. For him, wasn't that bad. It's

38:59

crazy to me. I don't know if that stunted his broadcasting

39:02

career, but I haven't heard from Jake Cutler

39:04

since. A very weird thing. So, JJ, you

39:06

think is going to stay in the booth?

39:08

I would think so, yeah, yeah, he's going

39:10

to stay. I think with the with the NFL today

39:12

and.

39:13

See how that yeahs out.

39:14

Yeah.

39:15

Look, I think Houston. Houston's on the right

39:17

track obviously. Yeah, for what they

39:19

did last year and you know, making

39:21

the playoffs, You've got a quarterback that's

39:24

probably gonna be one of the top quarterbacks

39:27

in the league for years. And then to get Will

39:29

Anderson right after him, so he had both the

39:31

offensive and the defensive rookie of the years

39:34

very quickly.

39:34

The Dolphins did make one move, speaking

39:37

of Miami, obj one

39:39

year deal. He's going to go down to South Beach

39:42

and you know, you already got Tyreek Hill, and you already

39:44

got Jaylen Wattles, you get the penguin and the cheetah,

39:47

and you're gonna add Obj to the mix. Is

39:49

this something that in the futures market

39:52

you look at them and go, Yeah, another weapon?

39:54

Where do you go? I don't even know if it moves

39:56

me in twenty twenty four.

39:57

It doesn't really move me.

39:59

I mean, I think Miami is going to continue

40:01

to be a pretty solid offense. Now it depends

40:03

on how much Tua develops, because

40:05

it's like he starts out a house of fire and

40:08

then late in the season kind of gets a

40:10

little bit figured out. So you

40:12

know what I'm going to be watching Miami more

40:14

is defensively,

40:17

because this is now a very young defense that

40:19

got hit pretty damn hard because of the cap

40:21

and because of free agency, so they had to let a

40:23

lot of guys go.

40:24

So this is a.

40:25

Pretty darn young defense and that's why

40:27

you saw him go I think pretty defense heavy,

40:30

at least in the draft. New coordinator Vic

40:32

Fangio now in Philadelphia, so

40:34

it is Anthony Weaver yep, who's

40:37

the former Ravens assistant

40:39

head coaching defensive line coach that takes

40:41

over. So I'm more interested in the defense

40:43

there. I think their offense still going to be explosive,

40:46

just because they have a lot of speed with you

40:48

know, Devin hn at

40:51

running back certainly, I

40:53

think he showed a lot last year. And

40:55

then you've of course got the Cheetah, You've

40:57

got Jalen Wattle, and you presumably have

40:59

these guys healthy along with Beckham. So offensively,

41:03

Miami's going to be able to score points and

41:05

they get stops, and that's what I'm

41:07

going to be looking for. And that's why I'm kind of

41:09

still like, you know what, they're

41:12

still the number two team in the AFC East.

41:14

I know, the Bills, it seems

41:16

like, you know, this is the end of the line for them,

41:19

but they had to make some adjustments defensively

41:21

and get a little bit younger. You know

41:23

that they couldn't run it back with the same group,

41:25

and now you know Dig's now gone of

41:28

course in Houston. But I

41:30

still think the Bills are the team to beat in that division.

41:32

They're still the favorites at plus at Dowar sixty to

41:35

win the AFC East. The Jets and

41:37

the Fish have the same number at

41:39

two to one to win that division,

41:41

and then the long shots the Patriots are twenty five

41:44

to one. Speaking of the Jets, they're

41:47

boy Jordan Travis. It

41:49

was a Travis d to see him get injured at the end

41:51

of the year for State doesn't make the

41:53

College Football Playoff, and we all know about

41:55

that because he got injured. It's drafted

41:58

by the Jets. He says, he sees himself as

42:01

Aron's successor. We

42:03

also heard news this week that Aaron's

42:05

going to be good to go, like no restrictions, OTA's

42:09

camps, whatever, We're good to go with

42:11

Aaron. Do you think this team should be

42:13

the second bedding favorite in this because again

42:15

sometimes it's look at the backup quarterback because

42:17

it's a rarity. It really is. It's

42:20

a rarity in the league that you're starting quarterback plays

42:22

all seventeen.

42:23

Yeah.

42:23

Look, I think them and Miami are pretty

42:25

even in the AFCs.

42:27

I really can't you know, you're splitting hairs.

42:29

I think between these teams. But you know, Travis

42:32

should.

42:32

See himself as the air pairent Aaron Rodgers forty

42:34

years old. So you know you

42:36

got to think, Okay, I'll bide my time here.

42:39

You know, I'm coming back from an injury. I'm going

42:41

to work hard. I got a lot to prove, and

42:44

yeah, he should see himself as the air parent. I

42:46

think this defense is going to be good.

42:49

They're pretty good on the defensive line. You

42:52

know, we never really knew what the ceiling

42:54

for this team was. So that's why I think

42:56

that the Jets get some respect in the market

42:58

because it's like, okay, we

43:01

never really saw their true ceiling.

43:03

So because you don't know, that

43:06

means it's like, oh, this ceiling could be really high

43:08

or it could be like, hey, they might win nine ten games

43:10

and that's it, you know, which I'm

43:13

kind of like in the middle here because

43:15

I think, you know, if this guy is good

43:17

to go, and you've got you

43:19

know, some good some good weapons around him. Obviously

43:21

Garrett Wilson a very good young

43:24

receiver, and you know some of

43:26

the veterans and now Mike Williams there

43:28

from the from the Chargers.

43:30

So we'll see with

43:32

the Jets.

43:33

You know, I'm not a buyer or sell on more

43:35

of a hold on this team because

43:37

I think there's a lot of unknowns with this team.

43:39

Think about that quarterback room last year without Aaron

43:41

Rodgers. I mean, you were throwing out the ten boyles

43:44

of the world. Zach Wilson's obviously didn't work out.

43:46

I mean they were going Trevor Simmons. They were

43:48

running through backups after

43:51

Aaron Rodgers went out. So if Jordan

43:53

Travis is healthy and all

43:55

of a sudden like that one to two of Rogers

43:57

Travis seems much more play than

44:00

what they.

44:00

Tackles for this team too.

44:02

By the way, Tyron Smith coming from Dallas,

44:04

and then of course they drafted for Shawn Who in

44:07

the first round out of Penn State.

44:08

Now it's gonna be very interesting to see what that quarterback

44:10

room looks like. And if Rogers, I think at

44:12

this point of his career he's going to teach the young fellow.

44:15

So I think they're gonna be okay there with Jordan

44:17

Travis as the back. Okay, our number two,

44:19

straight ahead JVT Jonathan von Tobe

44:21

is going to join us to talk all things NBA. That's next

44:23

on the look end
